5.8.1.2
Motor Current (C)
The motor current can be set by the user. To do this use the RS485 command “AC” in addition with a
percent value. To calculate the actual setting, please use the 100% values as shown in the table.
Internally the current is regulated by two independent parameters for the best module/motor
performance possible.
For chopper mode 2, the maximum setting is about 75% to 90% - at higher settings, motor microstep
behaviour may become harsh. The actual maximum depends upon the actual motor. This is to avoid
the motor coil current raising above the 100% setting at any time. Not all currents can be
continuously driven at all supply voltages / cooling circumstances.
Please refer to motor current
limitations.

Failure Readout (E)
The IDX provides a full driver failure analysis in SPI mode (8 Bit). The returned bit assignments are as
follows:
Bit
Name
Function
Remark
7
OT
Overtemperature
“1” = driver chip off due to overtemperature
6
OTPW
temperature prewarning
“1” = driver chip prewarning temperature exceeded
5
UV
driver undervoltage
“1” = undervoltage on VS – does not cover all cases
4
OCHS
overcurrent high side
(not available in current hardware implementation)
3
OLB
open load bridge B
Open load detection can occur at fast motion also.
2
OLA
open load bridge B
Open load detection can occur at fast motion also.
1
OCB
overcurrent bridge B low side Short circuit detected. Please check motor wiring.
0
OCA
overcurrent bridge A low side Short circuit detected. Please check motor wiring.
